SOIL MAP UNITS
Soil symbols used below and on the accompanying Wetland Sketch Map correspond to those in the
Hartford County Soil Survey map legend.
WETLAND SOIL SERIES
Walpole Series (Wd)
The Walpole series consists of deep,poorly drained soils formed in sandy water-deposited glacial
outwash materials. They are nearly level to gently sloping soils on glaciofluvial landforms,
typically in shallow drainage iyays and logy-lying positions on stream terraces and out`vash plains.
The soils formed in loamy over stratified sandy and gravelly outtivash derived from a variety-of
acid rocks.
Typically these soils have a very dark bro«n sandy loam surface layer 6 inches thick. The subsoil
from 6 to 23 inches is mottled,grayish brown sandy loam. The substratum from 23 to 60 inches is
mottled,light brownish gray,gravelly loamy sand and gravelly sand.
Walpole soils are poorly drained. The seasonal high water table is within 0 to 12 inches of the
surface from late fall through spring. Surface runoff is slow. Permeability is moderately rapid in
the surface layer and subsoil and rapid or very rapid in the substratum. Walpole soils have a water
table at or near the surface much of the vear.
UPLAND (NON-WETLAND)SOILS SERIES
Ninigret Series (Nn)
The Ninigret series consists of very deep,moderately well drained soils formed in a coarse-loamy
mantle underlain by sandy water deposited glacial outwash materials. They are nearly level to
gently-sloping soils on glaciofluvial landforms,typically in slight depressions and broad drainage
ways. The soils formed in loamy over stratified sandy and gravelly outwash derived from a variety
of acid rocks.
Typically,these soils have a yen-dark grayish brown fine sandy loam surface layer 8 inches thick.
The subsoil from 8 to 26 inches is yellowish bro-%sm fine sandy loam ivith mottles below 16 inches.
The substratum from 26 to 60 inches is mottled,pale brown,loose, stratified loamy sand.
Ninigret soils are moderately-well drained. The seasonal high ground water table is between 18
and 30 inches of the surface from late fall through spring. Surface runoff is slo-,y to medium.
Permeability is moderate or moderately rapid in the surface layer and subsoil and rapid or very
rapid in the substratum.

Agawam Series (Af)
The Agawam series consists of deep,Nvell drained soils formed in a coarse-loamy-mantle underlain
by sandy-water deposited glacial outwash materials. They are level to very steep soils on outwash
plains and high stream terraces. The soils formed in loamy-over stratified sandy and gravelly-
glacial outwash derived mainly from crystalline rocks.
Typically these soils have a dark grayish brown fine sandy loam surface layer 11 inches thick. The
subsoil from 11 to 26 inches is dark yellowish broNyn and light olive brown fine sandy loam. The
substratum from 26 to 55 inches is olive and olive broN-,n loamv fine sand. Below 55 inches it is
stratified fine sand to gravelly loamy sand.
Agawam soils are well drained. The water table is commonly-below 6 feet. Surface runoff is slow
to medium. Permeability-is moderate or moderately rapid in the surface laver and subsoil and very
rapid in the substratum.
The wetlands were field delineated in accordance with the standards of the National Cooperative
Soil Survey-and the definition of wetlands as found in the Connecticut General Statutes, Chapter
440, Section 22A-38. The investigation was conducted and reviewed by a Registered Soil
Scientist.

MEMORANDUM
To: South Windsor Inland Wetland/Conservation Commission.
From: Jeffrey H. Folger—Environmental Planner/Conservation Officer
Date: May 31, 2006
Re: Apple. #06-29P - Review of the proposed Nation subdivision. Plans dated 7/24/00.
The project is to subdivide the existing property to accommodate a two single family building lots.
Regulated activities include the filling and grading within the 80-foot regulated upland review area to
accommodate a septic system and a portion of a yard. Proposed disturbance is estimated at
approximately 5,217 sqft of disturbance in the upland review area.
Site: The site is located in the Plum Gully Brook watershed. The parcel is comprised of 3.9 acres and
slopes down moderately to the north. The site currently is unoccupied,but a house was recently
demolished on the lot that was located adjacent to Smith Street. One half of the site is cleared. The
remaining 1/2 (western and northern portion) is forested and contains both upland forest(previously
disturbed) and a wetland/watercourse corridor.
The regulated area would be considered a watercourse(swamp/stream corridor) and lies at the northern
end of the parcel. This area is defined by topography. The channel and associated floodplain being 6-8
feet lower than the adjacent upland to the south. The channel flows east to west, into a pond north of
Redfield Estates, and eventually joins the Plum Gully Brook channel. The wetland boundary shown is
accurate.
Functional values of the watercourse would be stormwater conveyance, sediment trapping and nutrient
removal, flood storage, and wildlife habitat. The riparian area associated with the stream represents a
significant wildlife corridor with several different kinds of habitat types along the corridor.
Disturbance is present on both sides of the eastern portion of the corridor. Residential development
has occurred along the southern edge for most of the length. One half of the northern edge has been
historically used for agriculture and is presently being developed into dense commercial. A riparian
area ranging from 10 to 100 feet exists on both sides of the watercourse.
Impacts:
Short Term: Soils on the site are mapped as Agawam Fine Sandy Loam(AfB) 3 to 8% slopes and
Ninigret Fine Sandy Loam(NnB) 3 to 8% slopes. These soils are listed as low to medium erosion
potential by the Hartford County Soil Survey. Erosion control shown should be adequate to control
migrating sediments generated by construction activities.
Long Term: Existing upland habitat in the eastern portion of the site will be reduced due to clearing
activities. Cover for protection and nesting will be lost as in any project where upland habitat is
disturbed or replaced with development. The proposed plan should not post an unreasonable impact to
the wetlands.
